Less polution, less engine attrition, less fuel consumption. Housevarm car and defrosted windshields
Car model:
Safety It is dangerous to drive with frost smoke in the interior and snow and ice on the windshields. With DEFA WarmUp you drive with defrosted windshields and good visibility.
Price
Economy Start with a pre-heated engine gives a considerable reduction in fuel consumption and less engine attrition compared to starting with a cold engine.
A better start all day.

If you start a pre-heated engine you also reduces noxios emission with 60-80% the first 4 km.
Comfort You can start your ride in a housewarm car. You don’t have to remove ice from the windshields, and the engine is easy to start.

Tests that have recently been performed by the independent Finnish technical institute, Tiililä Oy, show that if 250,000 city cars started on a cold winter morning with a pre-heated engine using DEFA WarmUp, exhaust emissions would be reduced by 15 tonnes of CO, 3.2 tonnes of HC, 25 tonnes of CO2, 70 kilogrammes of NOx and 11 kilogrammes of particles. At the same time, the cars would use 22,000 litres less petrol and 2,000 litres less diesel. And all of this is just with one single warm start instead of cold for these 250,000 cars.

Tid/min
Tests have proved that after 3 hours the engine block temperature increased by about 30°C. After 4 hours, the temperature has increased to aproximate 31.5°C. This means that in the fourth hour the temperature increased by 1.5°C. Based on these measurements we retain the maximum automatic connection time at 3 hours.

1 • Up to 50% reduced fuel consumption on shorter rides • Reduces noxious emission • Less engine attrition
2 • Up to 50% reduced fuel consumption on shorter rides • Less engine attrition • Housevarm car • Defrosted windshields • Reduces noxious emission
3 • Up to 50% reduced fuel consumption on shorter rides • Less engine attrition • Housevarm car • Defrosted windshields • Reduces noxious emission • Always fully charged battery • The battery last longer • The car is ready to start at any time
Engine heater must be purchased separately dependent upon the car model and engine type.
Temperature impact on battery and engine Impact on the battery - less and less effect
Impact on the engine - increased energy demand to start
